I'd bet the turn and call a raise, check/call the river if raised on the turn (if the guy just calls I'd probably bet the river). He could easily have a weaker made hand like a weaker 2 pair or TPTK with the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] so he has redraws if he is beat.

Passive preflop doesn't necessarily mean passive postflop. In this situation his flop raise (which I didn't see initially) could just be A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] X or A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] if he's aggressive enough postflop.

Anyway, I'll just go with he's overall passive for the hand. I like the way you stopped after the flop raise on this board. You put in less when behind by keeping it at one bet, and still make about as much when ahead. NH.

A single raise on the flop means absolutely nothing. He could have any KJ, QJ, KQ, 89 with a single heart, or many times without even having a single heart. The single flop raise by no means indicates a flush. 3-bet this flop, and see what his action is after. If he caps it, then you may consider slowing down depending on your read. I still may even be inclined to lead the turn and call down if raised (if I don't fill up). You definetly cannot define your opponents hand down to a flush by a single raise on the flop.

Edit: After reading everyone else's replies, it seems that most people are advocating the stop n go. This is a play that I almost never use. Although I do see the merit for it here in this hand.
